Huh???

I found a killer 61 with duel carbs, silver/red 4 speed with bullit proof paperwork but not the original motor and it wouldnt do.. I feel paperwork for one of 18 cars built should be better then original motor NO paperwork...
Wants ALL the bells and whistels.

One of 18 cars????? Where did that number come from?

I agree. Finding ANY documented '61 409 is an achievement.

[rich p]

Im trying to find that out myself not a 61 type of guy..

Verne,

Isn't the often quoted 409/360 production quantity of 142 units in SS cars incorrect and the 142 number really represents total production in all body styles regardless of trim series?.

I think somebody had a 61 car outside at the US 30 show in York...not sure if it was a 409..??? perhaps someone here saw the car..it was so hot outside I didn't take many walks

I think someone could find Gold Chicken lips alot easier. I had 2 early 61 blocks and know of someone else who had 3 over the last 20 some years. So that takes 5 of the cars out of the search.
